I'll give you that, Jeff. I will go along with the post shave feel, given the lanolin content in MWF.
The typical womanly response to Tabac Man: The correct definition of the Tabac stench are fetid, fusty, malodorous, noisome, putrid, rank, and stinking. While all these words mean "bad-smelling," fusty and musty suggest lack of fresh air and sunlight, fusty also implying prolonged uncleanliness, musty stressing the effects of dampness, mildew, or age. The prolonged result on the female of the species is revulsion!
That's what I use. My post shave routine consists of witch hazel, balm and aftershave all topped by sunscreen. I work out in the elements, my skin needs all the help it can get. Nice, Pierpaulo! You have inspired tomorrow's shave. Felce Aromatica it is! Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk
Thanks, Clint! Happy Friday to you! Unfortunately my 60 hour work week has been upped to 84 hours. I'll be out here all weekend. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk
Charlie, I probably would have bled out by now on this open edge journey without the great skin benefits of MWF.
Maybe a year or so back, I did a week each with Arko, MWF, Tabac, and Williams (the modern version). In the end, I'm pretty certain that Tabac was my top pick, with MWF trailing just slightly. I've never had an issue with lathering MWF. There have been many people say they do. Maybe it's their water. Or, quite possibly, it's because MWF lathers "differently" than many. MWF often starts out sort of bubbly and thin, then changes once you begin to face lather. For folks who are accustomed to using soaps like Stirling, that start out as dense and rich, I can understand why they might not like MWF. Tabac seems to build a denser lather than MWF....still plenty slick and protective. The post shave feel goes to MWF. The biggest thing missing from MWF? The glorious "grandma's purse" scent. For folks wanting some classic soaps in the den, they can't go wrong with either. But, why choose....get both!
